When you look at the GOP she is clearly head and shoulders above the average conservative congress person but for some reason there aren't daily OPEDs talking about how much they need to learn. The centrist media is not your friend and it's not up for debate.

Petr posted:20 years from now, extremely left posters from here will be repeating "but remember how dumb she was?" because it will be a Known Fact about her that everyone just accepts. Yep. They have tried several negative narratives against her. It turns out that people weren't bothered that she grew up in Bronx suburbia rather than the Hood. It turns out people are OK with the fact that she can dance. So now they are trying the "cute but dumb" angle. Eventually they will find something that sticks, and then it will be the only thing anyone ever remembers about her.

It's pretty clear there's a coordinated attempt by the media to gaslight the public into thinking she's dumb and oh so crazy usung a standard they hold literally no one else to so I think it's important when people push back against it so it doesn't get normalized. Every dumbass Mad Boot or Glen Kessler tweet gets pounded with actual fact checking which is good so far.

What I don't get is people here freaking out that the media are going to broadcast the president giving a speech. What do you think this speech is actually going to DO? Are you afraid Trump is going to turn into a master orator overnight and dig himself out of his eternal 38-42% approval hole? That this, finally, is going to be the  pivot that flips everything in his favor out of nowhere? Seriously?Trump was the stupidest assole alive in 2016, and he's been in a continuous state of cognitive decline ever since. He's going to figuratively and/or literally poo poo his pants with a  face in front of millions.

The big newspapers just published an absurd race baiting story about prisoners eating high on the hog during the shutdown riddled with mistruths but yeah AOC getting a number wrong is what we need to be focusing on since she needs to learn. This from the guys that said Iraq was going to be easy and never looked back. The faster the newspapers oped sections and cable news discredit thenselves with everyone the better. sean10mm posted:What I don't get is people here freaking out that the media are going to broadcast the president giving a speech.

It also signals that the "objective" media is still more than willing to work with Trump in a way they weren't with Obama which should be troubling to anyone.
